Military Cross
Das Military Cross (deutsch Militärkreuz) ist eine militärische Auszeichnung des Vereinigten Königreichs, die an Angehörige des britischen Heeres für ausgezeichneten und verdienstvollen Einsatz im Kampf verliehen wird. Früher wurde es auch an Offiziere anderer Commonwealth-Nationen verliehen. Nach dem Victoria-Kreuz und dem Conspicuous Gallantry Cross ist es die dritthöchste Tapferkeitsauszeichnung der britischen Streitkräfte. Da das Military Cross nur an Angehörige des Heeres verliehen wird, besitzen die Royal Navy (mit dem Distinguished Service Cross) und Royal Air Force (mit dem Distinguished Flying Cross) eigene Ehrenzeichen für Tapferkeit.
